Guy open ur eyes ... those grants and loans by the IMF and the likes are meant to enrich the western capitalist economy.
How many of those grants go into our locak industries.
Most of their grants are channelled into solid infrastractures like railways system, healthcare, energy etc of which they still bring the western companies to come and execute these projects. We are only left with loans to service.

They should take there grants and shove it up their a.ss

nke001: Here comes another proudly Nigeria Lab brewed drug for ebola virus!

This is no pesticide!

UrbanMystique: I said if"
Have you ever wondered why it's only America that has been shouting down every other drugs? Nano silver (pesticides) bitter kola very bad.

If your house is on fire, and I manufacture a fire extinguisher that can put out the fire with extra cost, if someone else comes with water solution to the fire, won't my greed make shout that the water is a bad idea?

Simple logic Bro.! America is just greedy here no one is blaming them for failure of anything

Godfullsam: Soon Americans will come and learn from Nigeria. God bless my country

GeneralShepherd:

If we used those grants well and we have a thriving railway,healthcare and energy infrastructure. Thousands of nigerians will be inspired to open companies and industries.

How do you mean it doesn't stimulate the local economy? The developed railway,healthcare,energy and allied offshoot industries employ 12 million Nigerians who benefits?

But of course we Nigerians embezzled those grants and are now angry with USA for shortchanging ourselves.

GeneralShepherd:


The western world hates you and they give you millions of dollars in grant every year,right?

They hate you and practically feed Africa right?

If the west wanted to get rid of Africa two nuclear war heads would have done the magic

Leopantro: NIGERIAN DOCTOR WAS “NOT” CURED OF EBOLA
(The Doctor NEVER had Ebola. World Health Organization & U.S. FDA Issued Confidential Warning Against Nigerian Health Minister, Onyebuchi Chukwu, For Spreading Rumours Of False Ebola Cure.
--Attorney Patryk Utulu

The W.H.O. and American FDA Have Issued Joint Statement That:

(1) Nigerian Doctor rumoured to be cured of Ebola was NOT cured of Ebola because the doctor NEVER had Ebola. (Initial test result was a “FALSE POSITIVE” which occurs in 1 out of every 150 tests).

(2) U.S. FDA warned [size=14pt]U.S. firms[/size] for targeting African nations and falsely marketing “dietary supplements” as Ebola cure. USA threatened penalties

(3) W.H.O./FDA issued “Confidential NOTICE” to Nigerian Health Minister, Oyebuchi Chukwu, for endorsing [size=14pt]an unproven U.S. nutritional supplement[/size]” and "thereby promoted false rumours of an Ebola cure." (WHO threatened to block Health Minister’s accreditation if he spread false rumours again)

(4) W.H.O. affirmed its ruling this week that the experimental drug, ZMapp, can be used on Ebola victims where available. WHO stated categorically that ZMapp is NOT a cure for Ebola and that EBOLA HAS NO CURE.

WHO’s “Confidential Notice” condemned Mr. Chukwu as “irresponsible” for saying that unidentified Nigerian scientist living overseas had arranged for Nigeria to get experimental medicine. Chukwu identified it as "NanoSilver,” [size=14pt]a supplement offered U.S. firm[/size], Natural Solutions Foundation, NSF.

FURTHER, THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION SAID THAT:
(1): NanoSilver is NOT accredited by FDA. It's products are "dietary supplements, NOT DRUGS" and has NOT been tested by FDA
(2): NanoSilver is for sale on a website along with India Hemp (marijuana) oil, ear candles, and chocolate. (LOL. Tufiakwa!!!!)
(3): Natural Solutions Foundation is NOT an accredited science laboratory
(4): On July 20, 2014, NSF’s medical director, Dr. Rima E. Laibow, posted an Open Letter to Presidents of Guinea, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Nigeria and Ghana claiming that NanoSilver cured Ebola. Dr. Libow claimed to have addressed 47 African health ministers at a 2007 conference and to be in touch with West African governments and their advisers. W.H.O. said THESE CLAIMS ARE FALSE. Dr. Laibow HAS NEVER BEEN TO AFRICA.

(5): The New York Times repeatedly has tried to contact Dr. Laibow who claimed that her drug cured Nigerian doctor but Dr. Laibow is nowhere to be seen. Agents of the U.S. FDA are hunting for her.
(6): Assistant Director of W.H.O., Dr. Marie-Paule Kieny, said [size=14pt]fraudsters are targeting African nations[/size] “AND SUCCEEDING BECAUSE OF LARGE NUMBER OF RELIGIOUS PEOPLE ANXIOUS TO CLAIM MIRACLE HEALING.”
(7): FDA’s Dr. Caplan said the same [size=14pt]people who marketed fake HIV cure-drugs to Africans for 30 years are now marketing fake Ebola cure to Africans[/size] “BECAUSE OF THE STUPIDITY OF AFRICAN RELIGIOUS GROUPS WHO ARE TEMPTED TO CLAIM MIRACLE CURE.”

DEAR NIGERIANS:
Please listen to the experts at World Health Organization & FDA. Ebola has NO cure yet.
DEAR TO RELIGIOUS PROPHETS: :
Ebola has NO cure. Stop claiming that Ebola can be cured in Church. You are deceiving Nigerians and lying to yourself. Your ego, religious arrogance and your desire to claim miraculous cure is false, ignorant and criminal.
THE BLOOD OF ANY NIGERIAN WHO DIES BECAUSE OF YOUR FALSE MIRACLE CLAIM WILL BE ON YOUR HANDS.

Btruth: Truly Nigerian. I'm proud of you guys. Keep working on it, God will see you through in Jesus name.

GeneralShepherd:


The western world hates you and they give you millions of dollars in grant every year,right?

GeneralShepherd:

The Nigerian health minister came out to say that Nano silver is not a cure for ebola, instead of you to call for his resignation, you blame america!!!!

If bitter kola was a cure for ebola why would the LASG waste millions of naira in building isolation wards when a basket of bitter kola is about 10000 naira?

barcanista: I don't know who made American FDA the Universal Approval Agency for Drugs. We have NAFDAC and must stick with NAFDAC and SON. To Hell with WHO and FDA

seunlayi: God that turn water to wine will turn this sample drug to a perfect drug. like to say Amen

Nigerian Pharmacist Discovers Cures for Dengue Fever, Hepatitis, Cancer, Tuberculosis and Diabetes

Dr. Benjamin Amodu.


Dr. Benjamin Amodu is a trained pharmacist with a doctorate degree in the field, and he is a lawyer with strong knack for herbal medicines. The civil servant with the Ministry of Defence has been in the news in recent times because of his recent breakthrough discoveries on ‘cures’ for hepatitis B and C, cancer, tuberculosis and Type 2 diabetes. Amodu in this interview with The Guardian’s CHUKWUMA MUANYA narrated how he came about SAAAB and HAABS dietary supplement for hepatitis B and C, SAABFAT 7 for cancer, TABSAABS for tuberculosis, and DAABS-2 for type two diabetes, among other issues. Excerpts:


WHAT prompted your interest in herbal medicine?

THE need to solve societal problem and in particular as that time in the 80’s there was an outbreak of Human Immuno-deficiency Virus (HIV)/Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), when I studied as a pharmacist in Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, Kaduna State we were told not to use anything that has more adverse effects than the useful effect.
So when I graduated and HIV/AIDS broke out, there was this AZT, which is the first chemical that was used in the treatment of HIV/AIDS. It has more side effect than its useful effects, and I was not disposed to using it. That forced me to do research and I discovered county capsules from China, which have strong immune boosting properties. Thereafter I read a German scientific work, which says that out of salad that is cocktails of vegetables, one can naturally produce a drug that can cure HIV/AIDS. That enabled me start my research work and since then I have not looked back again.

You are now being celebrated for bitter leaf-based herbal supplement that ‘cures’ hepatitis, TB among other diseases, how did you come about the discovery? Tell us more about the products?

I have just told you now that what forced me into the research are those white people who are doing the research, I think is the same brain that we have, that they have. So when I entered the research, as I told you, concoctions infused from cocktails of fruits, vegetables, barks, roots, nuts etc. It is from there that I have my lead drug. And don’t forget that I’m a pharmacist and I majored in Industrial Pharmacy, and that means I can own a manufacturing outfit and I’m glad today that I own one. So I don’t think it is difficult to know. As for bitter leaf, from my research, there is a concept that bitters are better foods for life, is that singular phrase that bitters are good for life that made me centered my work on bitter leaf.
I am happy that we have been able to use it to achieve remarkable breakthrough in areas of care for hepatitis B and C, tuberculosis, diabetes and cancer.
In addition, bitter leaf contains most of the major component of bioactive medical plant, for example tannins, saponins, flavonoids etc. So it should not be surprising that today in Nigeria we have gotten something out of bitter leaf and we have been peer reviewed by different learned international journalist.
To treat dengue fever, which’s an extreme form of fever, and as we speak, President of Hundoros recently declared a state of emergency because of the effect of dengue fever central to it devastating effects. So the world should know that we have solution for most of these neglected tropical diseases and these should come to the control to seek for solution. Even Cuba, we have sent them an email since we have our recent breakthrough in the treatment of dengue fever. We will give them the sample, let them analyse it in their Lab, if they are okay by it, we can now go into mass production to save humanity.
I have saabfsat 5,6,7, they’re all from African product for the treatment/management of most debilitating illnesses from our animal experiment (Phase1) and clinical trial carried out at the Nigerian Institute of Pharmaceutical Research and Development (NIPRD), it has been proved that with one product, cancer can be nipped in the bud, as those products are both prophylactic and curative.

You also claim you have cure for HIV/AIDS, how true is this?

As it is, it will not be proper to project the message that we have cure for HIV/AIDS. We don’t want to send any info to the outside world for anybody to think that we want to jump the gun. What we have can be subjected to further study, and we are uniting with the National Agency for Food Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) to do that.
So at this point, I don’t want to lay claim that I have cure for that. But, what the whole world recognized today is functional cure, and we can beat our chest that we have that cure. Functional cure as described by New York Times. What is functional cure? It is a state whereby an HIV/AIDS client has an increase immune system, decrease or no opportunistic infections and has loss no man-hour (can do his work without help from another). This is exactly that our herbal supplements do; our supplements are at par with the conventional Anti Retroviral Therapy (ART).
To that extent, we can say we have a functional cure. So, by and large we are not saying we have a total cure until we have finished all the required processes stipulated by law.
Our drugs have a repairing effect on the liver and kidney because they are purely sourced from natural fruits and vegetables. As a matter of fact, there are some kidney dialysis patients that use our products that got their rate of dialysis reduced drastically in addition to normalising their haematological indices.
You are a member of a special committee set up by NAFDAC to probe herbal cure claim. What do you think about the committee and NAFDAC’ plans for natural medicine?
That is a welcome development and I doff my cap to the director general of NAFDAC because, as soon as he does that, he would be laying the basis of herbal medicine transformation for President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration in the herbal sector through health because our drugs work in the non-communicable and communicable diseases which are the major diseases burden in the whole world. If we are able to deal with the number one killer disease in the whole world, which today is made up of cardiovascular diseases, exemplified by heart diseases, angina, myocardial infarction, hypertension, strokes, cancer, diabetes, and we have solutions to these ones in Nigeria.

By 2008, WHO reported that cardiovascular diseases as the number one killer disease in the world which accounts for about 69 per cent of the death worldwide. So if NAFDAC does and prove it to the world, it will be a remarkable achievement more so that the African Heads of State are on the way to setting up African Centre for Disease Control (CDC) for the management of the disease.
So if the NAFDAC boss does this, he will be adding another feather to his cap just as his name has been written in gold in the arena of stamping fake drugs from Nigeria, as evidence by his invitation by the United States Government.


Another big issue in traditional and herbal medicine is that of sustainability and availability of raw materials especially the plants. How are you ensuring this in your practice?

I own a farm entirely. So with that farm, is to increase capacity there, with effective partnership, we can increase our acreages. In one of my interviews, I said most of these raw material products in the market have the same yield with what we get from the farm, so we can try from the open market, the major thing is to test for pesticide, and heavy metals once this is done, we can effectively utilise those foods that are wasting.
These products are working and it should interest all that WHO has approved herbal medicine, even HIV, which we are donor limited, is now open to the herbal world. So why should there be any form of barrier anywhere again. We alone here cannot change the programme. The programme is that herbal medicine has become standard nobody can change that. We alone here cannot change the programme. The programme is that herbal medicine has come to stay and nobody can change that. So let us change our mindset about herbal drugs. Let us also join other nations of the world in making money from herbal drugs, in development and manufacture of herbal drugs and the trade in herbal drugs, which is about $175 million.

Herbal Medicine Can Transform Nigeria’s Economy – Amodu
Posted by Orient Daily on April 26, 2013 in News | Comments Off

Jibrin Lumba
Abuja

A leading researcher in plant extracts and natural medicine, Pharmacist Ben Amodu has commended the Federal Government for encouraging the development of about 75 billion herbal products stressing that success in the field could transform the country’s economy and remove it from reliance on petroleum products alone for revenue.
He also spoke approvingly on the support given to the development of herbal medicine by the World Health Organisation, (WHO), the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) and the Nigerian Institute of Pharmaceutical Research and Development, (NIPRD).
Amodu said time has come for the nation to fully embrace phytomedicine and to revolutionise the nation’s health system by incorporating natural medicine practice into orthodox medicine to enable the people harness its wonderful effects this can have on human health.
Pharmacist Ben Amodu who is a member of the committee inaugurated recently by the Director General of NAFDAC, Dr. Paul Orhii to look into claims by people who alleged that their herbs can cure different ailments including the dreaded Human Immune Deficiency Syndrome [HIV/AIDS], attested to the curative potency of some products and said genuine herbalists cannot deceive the public.
“There is nothing like a coordinated effort to deceive the public and we have been speaking to the press about our research findings. Our drugs are registered for the management of diseases.
The World Health Organisation, (WHO) has accepted our drugs for the management and treatment of HIV/AIDS and other related diseases and that has shown us the direction about where the nation can be heading in the future,” he stated.
Continuing, the researcher said even the NAFDAC has shown serious interest in curative qualities of herbs.
Still on HIV/AIDS cure, he said, “There should be nothing to worry about and no problem when anybody claims he cures anything. Whatever anybody claims, we encourage them to bring forth the preparation, the pharmacopeia standard in terms of the monograph; we use them to compare and try to find out where such falls; and also go further to do some direct application on the materials to see to what extent their claims can be substantiated.”
He said, “We have done far reaching research in that area and that is what this committee was setup to unveil before making any claim to the world. It is a good step in the right direction, because I think that from the herbal medicine point of view, HIV can be cured. If other people have also found a cure, they don’t have ten heads. A research is a research anywhere in the world. And whatever claims you are making here, the same claim has been replicated somewhere else in the world. So, the NAFDAC is taking the right step in the right direction on behalf of the government.”
He also remarked that Nigeria has taken the right step by participating in several herbal researches throughout the world observing that the experience and knowledge gained will help the nation transform her economy instead of relying on petroleum as the major source of revenue.
Pharmacist Ben Amodu also advised Nigerians to focus more on agriculture, saying that the cultivation of herbal plants is also a bi-product of agriculture, since the plants come from the farms
On the insistence of the NAFDAC Director General Dr. Paul Orhii that any false claimant will be jailed, Ben Amodu said, “I support the director general. I share the WHO standard that says you should do the required tests before registration.”
And I also went further to say that we shouldn’t be a dumping ground. We should also look out for the efficacy of the material. We should also go further to moderate WHO requirements and add efficacy which NAFDAC has now come up with. So, I support NAFDAC in this direction 100%, and by the time finished products come from our country, the products will be respected all over the world because of its efficacy.”
He added that good quality products are respected all over the world. “As you can see, the world is receptive of highly potent herbal medicine from the background of the fact that out of 119 medicines that come from plants in the world, 74% of them were traced to herbs. Herbs were used in several ancient civilizations and have been traced to various communities before the advent of modern medicines.”
“Initially, medicines come from plants. It was the need to mass-produce them that we found the short cut of using chemicals to mass-production. But because of their massive side effect, especially for the treatment of HIV/AIDS and cancer, there is need for alternatives. Our tests at the Nigerian Institute of Pharmaceutical Research and Development, (NIPRD) have shown that our herbs can suppress cancer. So, why not use them for preventive purposes since they don’t have side effects.
On the need for collaboration with stakeholders in the development of herbs,
Amodu said, “It is a welcome idea. I am a researcher who was invited in the meeting as a testifier. I have had over 30 products going through NIPRD and nobody stole my products. So, I came here to give confidence to others that there is nothing wrong in going through tests and certification of your products. And if you go through these, your products will be accepted throughout the whole world. So what do you lose? Your products will not be stolen, and it will get a stamp which the whole world will respect.”
“NAFDAC is doing a good work by encouraging the development of herbal medicine because many diseases are communicable and non-communicable diseases. Non-communicable diseases account for about 60% of the total deaths in the world.
“In 2005 alone, about 35 million people died as a result of hypertension, diabetes, cancer and chronic kidney diseases among others. Though HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and hypertension are non-communicable ones, they also have very high death rate.
Cancer as a non-communicable disease is equally a silent killer but our tests at the Nigerian Institute of Pharmaceutical Research and Development, (NIPRD) have shown that herbs can suppress cancer. So, it is being developed for general use,” he concluded.
